This guesthouse has a fabulous design. Each room has its private patio. The actual room must be at least 35sqm. With a huge workstation. A seating area. A good selection of voffee snd teas. A fridge. A king bed. A double vanity bathroom. A Separate loo. Huge shower plus a large bath. Each room had a colour code. We had the green room and yellow room. The lighting was really special. Head board had a subtle light. The side tables were also lit . Lovely lamps as well. The aircon and fan were life saver. The pool is set in a huge garden. Actually it was more like a private mini safari park. Visitors were Impala Warthog. Monkeys. A Guinea fowl family. And an amazing bird life. There was a community lounge area with a wonderful book selection. A honesty fridge filled with wine. Beer, juices plus a nespresso coffee machine . The breakfasts started with a different fruit/yogurt compote each morning... English muffins and croissants baked fresh every morning. Bacon&eggs to order. Each table was set up with a cheese board. Cold meat board. A selection of sliced fresh fruits: cherry, mango, kiwi fruit. The BEST pineapple. Strawberries. Black berries youngberrys. Yogurt. muesli. Cereals. The host Ingrid was warm &welcoming. She was a source of good information about the area. Places to visit and activities to enjoy. And advised on which restuarants to enjoy for different foods. Most importantly she told us which route the hippo... that walked up from the estuary every nite.... might take. On our last night we were lucky to witness this amaxing happening. I highly recommend SERENA-ESTATE, it is hands down the VERY BEST accommodation in St.Lucia. The hotels and other guesthouses can't compare. I'm talking from experience as we tried a few. Only ,to book out after an hour!

We stayed here for 3 nights before heading back home to Germany after a 2 weeks vacation in South Africa. The guesthouse is located in a residential area in Saint Lucia - very quiet but everything can be reached by foot. We could explore the area (e.g. Wetlandpark, beaches) and also relax at the pool. We were coincidently the only guests those 3 days. The guesthouse is a beautiful architechture and the pride of the owner. The hosts were extremely friendly and they helped or gave any recommendations when needed. We enjoyed every minute there. The room was perfectly clean and the breakfast on the patio was more than perfect. The garden is more like a zoo rather than a garden. Unfortunately, we did not see any hippos there but all kinds of other animals. We can highly recommend the Serene-estate Boutique Guesthouse.

We stayed 4 nights in Serene. A very quite Place. Olga, the owner and Ingrid were very helpful, and Hans , the owner, a architect, who has built the house did a really good job. It is a beautiful house.

We came upon this guest house in St Lucia while trying to find somewhere to base our visits in St Lucia. The property is immaculately maintained and through the property we were able to book a boat tour and land tour into the reserve. Both tours were fantastic. The room was spacious and bed and bedding were top shelf. Breakfast was included with our stay, it was fresh and healthy. The pool was well maintained and was one of the first ones we used. This is higher end guesthouse and you pay a little more, but you get what you pay for. Olga was the perfect host who wanted to ensure our stay was memorable and seamless.

The place is incredible, beautiful and very well maintained! We were very well taken care of by Ingrid from the beginning of the reservation and she spared no effort to make everything work out. She serves all guests with great kindness and attention! The room is huge, with space to spread out a lot of things! :). Comfortable bed and great quality towels. We had moments of great tranquility and peace! I also note the cordiality of the owners who are present, talk to guests and offer great tourism tips.

We hadn't expected this architectural approach in South Africa, and we very much appreciated the whole project. Moreover, excellent service and quality of the breakfast. This is definitely a place we can recommend.

It is a clean, airy and modern place in a beautiful surrounding. The host is a lovely lady who knows the area well and reads the wishes from the guests face. The rooms are clean, the equipment is modern, but simple (like in a hostel). The view from the room into the park makes up for it.

We liked everything! Our room was just outside the pool and garden and it is very modern and spacious with perfect beds. The beautiful garden has many birds as Turacos, Hornbills etc, even Monkeys,Warthog and Common Duiker.Ingrid, our host is so nice and helpful. The breakfast in the morning is tasteful, with a lot of fresh fruit. We were here 5 days, 25-30 of October, and St Lucia is a fantasic place, with a lot of things to do, go to National Parks etc, and there is a lot of good restaurants. We will for sure go back to Serena Estate if we have the oppurtunity to go to St Lucia one more time.
